NDC Applauds NPP For Prosperous Annual Delegates Conference 2019



NDC Applauds NPP For Prosperous Annual Delegates Conference 2019.


The largest opposition National Democratic Congress NDC has praised the ruling New Patriotic Party NPP for being able to organize a successful Annual Delegates Conference in this festive season.

The Formal Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of National Health Insurance Scheme NHIS Mr Sylvester Mensah delivering a solidarity address on behalf of the NDCs on the occasion of the Annual National Delegates Conference of the NPP held at the LA TRADE FAIR CENTER on Sunday 22nd December 2019,   salutes the NPP for the courage to hold a National Delegates Conference during this Christmas season, when the sentiments of the majority of Ghanaians are that of a “Sakoora” Christmas.
 " Let me congratulate you for excellent organization of this event. We wish you well in all your deliberations,"


He noted that, the NDC is sincere and committed to the ideal that no party out of government should wish failure for any government. If a government’s programmes are successful, they will inure to the benefit of the generality of our people. 

It will be good for the over trumpeted red, gold, green Free SHS to succeed so that the in-coming NDC government in 2020 can sustain and improve it to make it better for all Ghanaians – Ghana will be the winner for that.


In addition, Mr Sylvester Mensah believed that, this time of the year reminds us all of the need for peace on earth and goodwill towards all men. You cannot have peace without goodwill. You need both; and herein lies the challenge to our opposite in government: you have the opportunity to apply these two concepts, so they make a positive impact on the lives of our fellow country-men and women. 


We have witnessed policies and regulatory interventions that have had dire consequences for entrepreneurs, skilled staff and customers in the financial sector; we have witnessed mass exiting of Ghanaians from jobs in the public sector, just because they profess to political philosophies other than yours.
Additionally, press freedom is under siege; the continued closure of media houses perceived to be sympathetic to the NDC is a blot on our democracy and undermines tolerance and freedom of expression. It is a legacy no one should be proud of. These are not attributes of “peace and goodwill”. He said


  In conclusion he said, NDC is closely observing the deliberate harassment of its National Party Chairman, Honourable Ofosu Ampofo.
To this end, our Christmas message of: "Peace on earth, Goodwill towards all men" should serve as a clarion call and a beacon, providing light and guidance to all our parties in the effort to make Ghana a more humane environment and the great country we know it can be for today and posterity.
